Welcome

The Scottish Lime Centre Trust promotes the knowledge and traditional skills required for the conservation, repair and maintenance of the historic built environment. We work nationally and internationally to provide advice, guidance and traditional skills training for anyone dealing with a historic structure, be it an A-listed castle or a garden wall.

I just wanted to say that this course exceeded my expectations. I have attended a great many courses over the years but this course stands out above all of them. Your tutor was very knowledgeable, witty and managed to make even the more tedious material interesting and I would like to
praise the way he handled my unexpected announcement that I have Dyscalculia and can't manage ratios - I left the course able to calculate the ratios correctly and I am confident that I can do this without any difficulty in future. The course was exceptionally well organised - I was impressed with the way in which the second member of the team worked behind the scenes setting up things so that everything was ready when required. It was a seamless production and well planned.
I enjoyed the course so much, I would like to come back and do some more courses in the future and I will be recommending the centre to everyone I think will be interested.
Thank you so much.

Just a quick email to say that Edinburgh World Heritage is delighted with the recently delivered lime pointing training workshop. The volunteers all had a super time and I'm really confident that they will go on to apply the skills and knowledge learnt. Scott is a phenomenal trainer and their new found confidence was very much linked to his knowledge and manner.

This organisation is a Centre of Excellence. From administration staff to both 'Scott's' who provided an interesting and informative course. Finally, the variety and quality of food provided was much appreciated by everyone. (Feb 2016)
